Solution:

101/125

Explanation:
This is an extremely tricky question. You have to find the probability where all of them have same number in mind. But if you try to do that, you will have to do a lot of calculations and utilize your brain plenty much. However, the trick to do this question is something opposite. We are not implying that you won’t get answer by directly calculating the probabilities, but it will take much time.

However, if you just go on calculating the negative probabilities, then you can simply subtract it from 1 to find the positive probability. Let us begin the operations and not confuse you further more.

Let us take two friends in the beginning. The probability that Adam and Bella don’t have the same number in their respective mind will be 4/5.

Now let us include Christopher in the scene. The probability that Christopher don’t have a digit same as either Adam or Bella will be 3/5.

Let us now include Drew as well. The probability that she does not have any number in mind which is same as either Adam or Bella or Christopher will be 2/5.

Now the combined probability that none of them has the same number in mind will be:
4/5 * 3/5 * 2/5 = 24/125

Now the probability that they have same number in mind will be:
1 – 24/125 = 101/125

Solution:

74658

* 8 + 6 =14
* 5 - 4 = 1
* 7 = 2*4 - 1
* 4 + 6 = 10
* 7+4+6+5+8 = 30

Solution:

This is more of a philosophical question than being a riddle or a puzzle. The action of Brian directly led to the result which is the death of Chris. Thus he murdered Chris. In a sense, Chris died due to the lack of water. It is the circumstances that ultimately led to his death.

Solution:

LOTTO

Explanation:
Just flip the two rows 1 and 2 vertically, you will find the word "Lotto".

Solution:

Step one: First you will have to make 3 trips of 1,000 apples 333 miles. Then you will be left with 2,001 apples and 667 miles to go.

Step two: Next you will have to take 2 trips of 1,000 apples 500 miles. In this manner you will be left with 1,000 apples and 167 miles to go (you have to leave an apple behind).

Step three: At last, you will have to travel the last 167 miles with one load of 1,000 apples and you will be left with 833 apples when you reach the town

Solution:

Both 3 and 4th

Explanation:
- The water in tank1 will get filled up to the connectivity of tank1 and the tank2 and then it will start flowing to tank2.
- The water in tank2 will get filled up to the connectivity of tank2 and the -tank3 and then it will start flowing to tank3.
- The water in tank3 will get filled up to the connectivity of tank2 and the tank3 and then it will start flowing to tank3.
- As the outlet of tank3 and inlet of tank4 are not at the same level, water will continue to fill tank3 till the inlet of tank4.
- Now both the tank3 and tank4 fill simultaneously until both fill together.

Solution:

1653

Explanation:
For an ideal case, the batsman will hit a six on each ball. But if he hits six on the last ball of the over, the strike will change in the next over. Thus, the best he can do in the last ball is run 3 runs so that he retains the strike even in the next over. Thus the total runs that he can score in each over:
6 * 5 + 3 = 33
But this will have to go like it only till the 49th over. In the last over, he can hit a six in the last ball as well as that will be the last ball of the match.
Thus runs for the last over will be 6 * 6 = 36.
Hence the maximum runs = 33 * 49 + 36 = 1653

Solution:

He should shoot at the ground.

If Kangwa shoots the ground, it is Rafael's turn. Rafael would rather shoot at Ferdinand than Kangwa, because he is better.
If Rafael kills Ferdinand, it is just Kangwa and Rafael left, giving Kangwa a fair chance of winning.
If Rafael does not kill Ferdinand, it is Ferdinand's turn. He would rather shoot at Rafael and will definitely kill him. Even though it is now Kangwa against Ferdinand, Kangwa has a better chance of winning than before.

Solution:

13 numbers

Explanation:
Since we are looking to find odd reminder which implies that the remainder will be either 1 or 3
Therefore number must follow below two conditions:
A) We can list number 5n + 1 or 5n + 3. (where n = 0,1,2,3.....)
B) The number must end in 1 or 3.

List of such numbers less than 100 are:
1, 3, 11, 13, 21, 23, 31, 33, 41, 43, 51, 53, 61, 63, 71, 73, 81, 83, 91, 93

Let's remove the nonprime ones which are 1, 21, 33, 51, 63, 81 and 91

So, I will be left with 13 numbers which fit the bill.
3, 11, 13, 23, 31, 41, 43, 53, 61, 71, 73, 83 and 93

Solution:

Fred Odea won.

Just look at the announcement lines. The first sentence in 'Ok now everybody!' If you take out just the first letter of every word, it will form 'ONE'. In the same manner the second sentence 'The winner of…..' will give form 'TWO' and the third sentence 'The Hardest Riddle Ever Event.' Will form THREE.

Thus the final sentence must form FOUR. There is only one candidate who can suffice with the first two letter and he is Fred Odea. The final sentence of the mastermind must be, 'Fred Odea: Ultimate Riddler!'
